We're talking about Paul Chryst here. Not even Jonathan Taylor started game one.
This dynamic will fascinate me. I don’t think Coan is all that good. 

But I’m not sure Mertz is that good yet. Might have to lose Mich before a switch. We’ve seen what? Two-three QB benchings with him running the offense, plus a couple injury fill-ins?

I think his boss will remind him that UW doesn't lose to Michigan if his boss started Brooks over Kavanaugh back in 1999.


Coan is a game manager, and can't really run. UW needs more this season.


If Mertz or Wolf wins the job in the Fall, he has to do it. Think 2009. Everyone thought for sure Sherer was getting that job, and he gave it to Scotty.

That one would be a lot more infamous if Barry hadn't finally gotten over the Lloyd Carr obstacle in his 2005 swan song.

 That 2005 game is one of the greatest games ever played, and I will hear nothing to the contrary

I watched the 1 1/2 quarters of that 1999 game. If almost everyone else hadn’t played like garbage,  they probably win that game. and that’s before watching Dayne get held to no yards after halftime.

2009 was weird. Sherer seemed the default answer with fans clamoring for the shiny freshman. Then Scott came into camp and in two weeks, Sherer was out of it.

Just need Wolf and Mertz to be good enough, and I’ll trust PC to have a good gage of when that is. But that’s the key. Scott brought his game to where he was good enough and the staff trusted him.

That game in Madison was the site of the first-ever CFN board meeting. 

I think Gator might still be bitter with that one. 

Hehe. Sorry. I'll never forget his reaction that night.

 What was interesting was that it was the perfect kind of call because it was slightly ballsy, but secretly not that crazy of a call

This is crucial to the season, in my mind. Unless Coan has a lot more to show, that is.

I still think the AXE is still in Madison had he started that game. AH had nothing and gave the game away. Yeah, he had a little help, but still. Horrible.

I don’t 100 percent agree, but while I usually snap back at QB counter factuals ... on a day when everyone just crapped all over the field, he was far and away the leader.
